First Demonstration of 25λ x 10 Gb/s C+L Band Classical / DV-QKD Co-Existence Over Single Bidirectional Fiber Link

Florian Honz, Florian Prawits, Obada Alia +11

As quantum key distribution has reached the maturity level for practical deployment, questions about the co-integration with existing classical communication systems are of utmost…

Towards an All-Silicon DV-QKD Transmitter Sourced by a Ge-on-Si Light Emitter

Florian Honz, Nemanja Vokić, Philip Walther +2

We investigate the behavior of a Ge-on-Si light source and demonstrate its feasibility for polarization-encoded discrete-variable quantum key distribution following the BB84 protoc…

Alignment-Tolerant Fi-Wi-Fi Free-Space Optical Bridge

Florian Honz, Aina Val Marti, Philip Walther +2

We demonstrate a simplified out-door FSO link with modal split for down-/uplink and confirm its long-term stability without active beam tracking. We further prove the duality of mo…

Polarization-Encoded BB84 QKD Transmitter Sourced by a SiGe Light Emitter

Florian Honz, Nemanja Vokic, Philip Walther +2

We demonstrate a polarization-encoded BB84 transmitter sourced by a SiGe light source and show that such a potentially "all-silicon" QKD scheme can operate well below the QBER thre…

On the Security of Offloading Post-Processing for Quantum Key Distribution

Thomas Loruenser, Stephan Krenn, Christoph Pacher +1

Quantum key distribution (QKD) has been researched for almost four decades and is currently making its way to commercial applications. However, deployment of the technology at scal…

Demonstration of 17λ x 10 Gb/s C-Band Classical / DV-QKD Co-Existence Over Hollow-Core Fiber Link

Florian Honz, Florian Prawits, Obada Alia +11

We successfully integrate coherent one-way QKD at 1538 nm in a 7.7 km long hollow-core fiber link with 17 EDFA-boosted C-band data channels from 1540.56 to 1558.17 nm, aggregating…
